Words cannot express how deeply sorry I am for her daughters. They cared for her with such loyalty and love-no one could have done more. Aunt DoDo was a strong, no-nonsense woman who loved deeply and lived life on her own terms. She welcomed me into the family and treated me as one of her own, something I´ll always be grateful for. She will be missed and remembered with great respect and affection. My heartfelt condolences to all of her family and friends.
